ABSTRACT:
Methods for sterilization of ligase-based amplification products, including products of the Ligation Amplification Reaction (LAR), involving treatment of nucleic acid after amplification to render such nucleic acid incapable of serving as a template for further amplification. Both random and site-specific addition of sterilizing compounds, and more specifically, photoactivation compounds, render amplification product subsequently unamplifiable. Self-sterilizing primers are also employed allowing for a homogenous detection of ligase-based amplification product.
